The Property Smugglers Cottage is completely unique. Work started on the property in 2001. The idea was to design two completely separate living spaces that are cleverly linked via a lift. Obviously this gives potential for two families to live at the property or to rent a section out as a holiday let. The property works fantastically well as an overall family residence giving space and peace for three generations. Summer Cottage is designed to capture the best views out over the beach, seas, harbour and surrounding coastline. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall with access to the lift and terrace. The living accommodation enjoys an ‘Out of Wood’ kitchen/dining room, a sitting room and a study. There are three en-suite bedrooms, a studio and cloakroom. Summer Cottage is heated via underfloor heating. The lift is an excellent feature, linking the two properties together and providing access to all levels, apart from the top floor of Summer Cottage. The lift connects to the garaging and the Winter cottage. This accommodation is predominately used by the current owner in the winter months. This cottage benefits from two suites, two further bedrooms and bathroom. Three reception rooms, workshop and a truly magnificent ‘Out of Wood’ kitchen. This contains American oak units under granite work-surfaces with a magnificent set of appliances that include a large cooker, microwave, steam oven induction hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher, work plate, Teriyaki plate and indoor barbecue all by ‘Gaggenau’ and a large walk-in larder.
